La flaca mas bella del Universo aka Puerto Rican Zuleyka Rivera is using the power of her crown to represent the Latino community for a very worthy cause. Today she was appointed the International Ambassador for the Latino Commission on AIDS. In that role she will support local, regional, national and international initiatives in the areas of HIV/AIDS prevention, health education, capacity building and advocacy. The 18 year old Salinas native said:
I want to encourage HIV/AIDS awareness and education for my peers, but more importantly, I want to be an example for everyone who is afraid of being tested. Together we can all work toward the mutual goal of protecting our loved ones and our communities.
